Buying a new vehicle can be a tedious process, but what if it were as simple as purchasing a mobile phone?

That’s the idea Volvo is pursuing with its new subscription service “Care by Volvo.” Launching alongside the 2019 XC40, the Swedish automaker’s first entry into the small SUV segment, Care by Volvo serves as an alternative to buying or leasing and allows car owners to pay a monthly fee for their vehicle with no down payment or registration. The flat-rate offered across the board to all customers replaces the time spent haggling with dealers over an agreed upon price.

The program also covers taxes, insurance, and services, as well as eliminating fees related to customer age and geographical location. Depending on regional availability, customers will also have access to an array of Volvo’s concierge services which include fueling, cleaning, dealer pickup, and package delivery directly to the car.

Care by Volvo is a subscription service similar to those of mobile phone providers.

“With Care by Volvo, we introduce a new car access for the modern age”, said Håkan Samuelsson, President and CEO of Volvo Cars. “In a time where consumers are used to transparent flat-fees for all sort of services, the traditional process of buying and owning a car can be perceived rather complicated. Care by Volvo changes all of that.”

Similar to the contract offered with the purchase of a new mobile phone, subscribers are also offered the option of upgrading to a newer model after 24 months. Those immediately in need of a larger or smaller vehicle for a special occasion will also have access to a temporary loaner for a pre-defined period of time.

“Time is a luxury for our customers, and with this service we are able to free up time in their daily lives”, stated Thomas Andersson, Vice President of Care by Volvo. “This is simply making life easier for our customers.”

The 2019 XC40 debuted last month in Milan and is Volvo’s first luxury compact crossover. Production for the vehicle begins in November at the automaker’s Ghent, Belguim plant, and it will have a starting price of $33,200.
